Resources

Badger Family Hub
The Badger Family Hub is an online platform designed for parents and family members to stay connected to campus and their student’s journey at UW–Madison. In the portal, you’ll receive newsletters, join communities based on your interests, and register for Parent and Family Program events, such as Family Weekend.
The Badger Family Hub is the best way to stay informed, involved, and engaged with all things UW–Madison.
Parent and Family Program Calendar
Each year, we produce a calendar featuring key dates, information, and images that highlight iconic views of UW–Madison. All domestic families can request a copy to be mailed to them at no cost*.
We are no longer mailing 2025-2026 calendars. A form to request the 2026-2027 calendar and the optional PDF download will be available late summer/early fall.
*We are unable to send printed calendars internationally; however, you can download a copy.
